i want to do a research about planning mitigation for disabilities, especially for physical disability. I want to know the needs or the facilities for them during disaster
Thankyou :D
Hi,
You can explore a research documentation from Handicap International- http://www.handicap-international.de/fileadmin/redaktion/pdf/disability_management.pdf
Also have time to read this research paper- http://www.preventionweb.net/files/9706_DisasterManagement.pdf
Hope this will solve your query.
Thanks
Yash
Hey Abiba,
Great question. Have you seen the stuff from the Disability Inclusive DRR Network? http://www.didrrn.net/home/
Also, the DRR work from Helpage International should treat some relevant and overlapping issues. http://www.helpage.org.
Echoing Yach as well on the Handicap International who will be a leader in this area.
Hope it helps!

Hi Adiba,
following information could also be helpful to you

I think there's still a lot of work concerning this topic!

Hi Adiba,
This publication may not be specifically on physical disability but should be useful regardless "Children with disabilities and disaster preparedness: a case study of Christchurch" http://www.tandfonline.com/doi/full/10.1080/1177083X.2015.1068185

Dear Abida,
The results of the first-ever UN global survey of persons living with disabilities on how they cope with disasters, can help you.

Let me know if you need more help. For more specif, please let me know in which country or region you are working on. Context is important in DRR.
Good luck, Youcef
